I just went and saw my psych doc and he said he would put out his feelers and get in touch with me about my endo referral soon! I don't know what else to say except I'm extremely STOKED!!!11!! CAN YOU TELL?


It'll most likely still be a few months before I actually get T, but still, one step out of the way!

Puberty is the sickest joke God plays on us. So you're just noticing members of the sex: "Girls girls, ooo". Naturally you want to look your best, and God says "No! You will look the worst you've ever looked in your life!"

Thanks guys!! My doc said he'd refer me to one of two endos, but I was too excited and forgot one of the names as soon as I left. The other one likes to start out on tablets which pretty much do nothing, or really low shots.  I kinda want low shots but not REALLY low, y'know.. So I hope I can stand my ground and at least make sure I get shots.

Awesome! I remember when I got my ok from the psychologist, I forgot the name of the surgeon he mentioned! Wait till you start T, I was smiling the whole day lol.

listen to whichever endo you eventually get and start at a low dose to be sure your body doesn't do weird things the way MtFs find high doses of E get converted to T.
This happened with me and over the space of 3/4 weeks I flushed out with thick black hairs all over my hands, face and legs.  Awful time.
Whether a FtM would find a high dose of T would convert to E and grow lovely boobs and gorgeous complexion is something I don't know and haven't heard about but it would be awful for you to find out.

Thanks guys! Yeah lilacwoman, I want to start low to give my body a chance to adjust, but from what I've heard the tablets don't do anything because the body doesn't absorb T that way.  I'm gonna have to push if I wanna start on shots, but i will.
